Meet Dixi! This sweet senior girl is the perfect combination of affectionate, confident, relaxed, and just a little bit bossy. She loves people, enjoys attention, and has mastered the art of living a comfortable life. If you're looking for a low-maintenance companion who wants to spend her days snuggled up with her favorite humans, Dixi may be exactly who you've been waiting for. Dixi came to us as a local owner surrender. While transitions can be difficult, Dixi has adjusted well to foster life and quickly reminded everyone that she knows exactly how to win hearts. With her gentle personality and charming confidence, she has become a favorite wherever she goes. Now she's ready to find a forever family that will spoil her the way she deserves. Dixi's favorite activities include snuggling under blankets, cuddling with her people, napping in cozy spots, watching TV with the family, sunbathing, relaxing on outdoor patios, chewing on bones, being carried around, meeting new people, quiet relaxation, and one-on-one time with her favorite humans. In fact, blankets may be Dixi's favorite thing in the entire world. Her foster says, "She loves blankets. She will snuggle in a blanket and you won't even know she is in there." Don't be surprised if you spend a few minutes searching for her before discovering a tiny blanket lump snoozing peacefully on the couch.
Ideal Home
Dixi would thrive in homes with first-time dog owners, calm and quiet households, families looking for a low-energy companion, homes with respectful children, and anyone looking for a devoted cuddle buddy. Dixi loves children and is especially gentle with smaller kids. She coexists well with cats and does well with other dogs, though she definitely prefers dogs who enjoy peacefully sharing space rather than constant play sessions. Her foster shares, "Dixi is fine with other dogs, but she will let them know she is in charge. She may be little, but she doesn't know that." She has a confident personality and isn't afraid to set boundaries when necessary.
Ongoing Health

Training & Support
Dixi has settled into foster care beautifully and is doing well with both house training and crate training. She can occasionally be stubborn—something that comes with having a little personality and knowing exactly what she wants. She can also experience some crate anxiety at times, but overall continues to do well with routine and consistency. As she continues to settle into new situations, she gains confidence and becomes more comfortable with new experiences.
